"Jungle James came to our school. His presentation was informative engaging & fun. All the kids LOVED it! Their animals are amazing. The crested geckos are the coolest. The tortoise, Tank, is a showstopper and the chameleon, is just stunning. I can't wait to have them come to my son's birthday!"

Jungle James came to our son's school for his 4th birthday, the kids and teachers LOVED him! He brought tons of live animals and Tank the tortoise! Most of all, he made our son feel special by focusing the attention on him and allowing him to pet all the animals first!!!
